Does anyone remember this happening not long after 9/11 in Ann Arbor, Mi?

Question

Wow, I can't believe I'm blanking like I am. I'm from Ann Arbor and all I can remember of the story is that there was a man who was middle eastern (possibly Iraqi, not sure) and he was an innocent man, however he was arrested and held under suspicion for some reason or another... I really would like to find some info on this, an article or something, but can't remember any details. Sorry to be so vague. I remember it was a VERY big deal at the time though, all over the news, etc. because he was def. a victim of racial profiling (Which we all know happened pretty hardcore after September 11th)

Thanks to anyone who can help me come up with some info on this!
